BOARD OF ALDERMEN
(Continued fromTyesterday.)
By Chapter 554 of the Public Laws
of 1909, ratified 8 March, 1909, a law
was passed entitled "An Act to provide
forfthe inspection of illuminating oils
and fluids," by which it was provided
that for the purposes of defraying
expenses connected with the inspection,
testing and analyzing oils in this
State, there shall be paid to the Com
missioner of Agriculture a charge of
one-half cent per cent, which payment
shall be made before delivery to agents,
dealers or consumers in this State.
The Revenue Act passed by that
General Assembly was ratified the same
day and section 58 thereof levied a tax
on each person, firm or corporation
selling illuminating oil, lubricating oil,
benzine, naptha or gasolene in this
State as annual license tax where the
gross sales exceed $25,000 of one per
centum upon such gross sales and pro
vided a penalty for non-payment.
This section also provided that no city
or town shall levy a license or privi
lege tax exceeding $10, and only when
there is located in such city or town an
agency, station or warehouse for the
distribution and sale of such oils, and
the person, firm or corporation paying
the tax upon the gross sales as afore
said shall not be liable for any other
tax except the ad valorem tax upon the
property , situate and being in this
State (Ch. 438, Laws 1909.)
. On the 9 March, 1909, a law was rati
fied which provided that the tax im
posed under section 58 aforesaid shall
be suspended and shall not be here
after collected front any' persons, dealers
or corporations paying the taxes im
posed under the inspection law enacted
as .'aforesaid: Provided, however, if
the said oil Inspection' Act should be
held . invalid, section 58 as. aforesaid,
shall remain in. full effect., v
' Sec 58 of the Revenue Act of 1913
Ch. 201, Pub. Law's 1913,, is a combina
tion of section 58 -of the. Revenue Act
of 1909 and the Act ratified as afore
said on the 9 March, 1909. '
Some of oil dealers contend that the
City can levy on privlege tax whatever
and some admit that a tax of $10
may be levied. I understand that they
will pay t the $10 tax, but will contest
the $50 tax.1 - - '
In my opinion the .whole of section
58 is suspended as long as the inspect
ion, law is enforced and the Inspection
charges are collected, and that the city
is empowered under its charter and the
general law to levy , such license tax
on dealers as the' Board! of Aldermen
may deem just not to exceed $50 per
annum. "i - j
